i started in 2018, but every year i make a playlist a month and any new song i like (or rediscover after forgetting) i add to the monthās playlist
as someone who loses track of time and canāt keep track of what happened in what year because it all blends for me, itās a little funny looking back at what music i was listening to during certain events of my life, like breakups and how people i met influenced my music taste. i.e. march of 2018 when i got into lofi and i met a community of small artists who have grown since then or july of 2021 when i got into hyperpop after meeting an ex-roommate. i wish i started this earlier like in june 2015 when i got into kpop
everyone i know puts every song they like into one playlist, or their āliked songsā but i love having my songs organized into playlists and folders and one of my favorite things to do is find a theme for the playlist covers :p

My friend does this!! It was really cool listening to her playlist from around the time we met while driving around to get some food lol. I'm gonna start doing it too, seems so fun and practical!

iāve been doing this since 2018 and itās so cool to see my music taste develop and improve since then, documented month by month! i add songs that iāve been listening to a lot or songs that were recently released, just whatever iām in the mood for that month! and i can also kind of revisit times in my life by listening to an old month playlist. also, at the end of the year i compile that yearās monthly playlists into a year playlist, and itās like a longer and more comprehensive wrapped playlist!

sometimes i get into a āplaylist-paralysisā where i fixate on making an immaculate playlist where all the songs perfectly fit the exact vibe im thinking of, and because of that i end up not making a playlist at all. which was not awesome.
so instead of freaking out like this, iāve been making monthly playlists where i put any song iāve been liking that month. itās great and if i find future vibe inspiration, i can pull from my own musical shelf.
plus as a bonus, you start to associate the songs from each month to the memories of that month and the people youāve met and the things youāve done. pretty cool.

incredible performances from the entire cast. atticus ross and trent reznor never miss and this was one of their most fun soundtracks, which plays so well with the editing and cinematography and deserved an oscar for this one (they did the social network, queer, and se7en) seen it 4 times, would watch it a 5th!
